Natalie was inspired to create ​Fireflies Fitness during her treatment & recovery from breast cancer. 
She was diagnosed in February 2019 whilst training for her fifth marathon. As a Registered Teacher of the Royal Academy of Dance, she was busy running Fireflies Dance School for children in London. Natalie was fit & otherwise healthy & was in the best position to take on the challenging treatment plan. Despite being strong, the surgeries & chemotherapy took their toll both mentally as well as physically.

​

Natalie kept active leading up to, during & after her treatment & is positive that it contributed to her stamina & healing. 

Currently navigating breast reconstruction & the side effects of hormone therapy & a surgical menopause, she uses exercise, well-being & nutrition to relieve her pain, lift her spirits & gain much needed energy to be the solo parenting, business running, cancer awareness spreading, fierce woman that she is! 

Now, in remission, Natalie is working with others to help them get through their diagnosis the best way possible.

Natalie joins us for a special exercise session to help cope with fatigue.
